Eligibility clause
A member becomes eligible to access the "Thinking of England" forum after three months and 25/50/100 posts. After this time, a member can request access to the forum from an administrator.
Before permission is activated, two (or more) current “Thinking of England†posters must sponsor the new applicant. The sponsorship will be in confidence and will take the form of PM to the administrator handling the permissions, stating “I am willing to sponsor [name of applicant]†and will be in response to a notifying post in that forum stating “[name of applicant] seeks sponsorship to this forumâ€.
NOTE:
This vote is a poll with cumulative percentages.
We require at least 39 votes to make a quorum. Of those 39 or more votes, 66.66% will determine the restriction requirement and ratify this clause. That is, if the first option gets the 66.67% by itself, it is is the winning choice. Otherwise its total carries over the next choice, which is the winning choice if its cumulative total exceeds the needed percentage, and if not, its cumulative total carries over to the next choice, etc., etc.
This Poll opened Saturday 11 June, 9.29 am GMT and will close on Saturday 25 June, 9:30 am GMT (to ensure that two full weekends are encompassed.)
